The evening raised $340,000 for The Society’s Pediatric Family Housing Endowment, which pays for overnight stays when children and their families come from out of town for treatment at MKSCC’s renowned Department of Pediatrics and are unable to afford this expense themselves. The Associates Committee has pledged to raise $2 million over five years for the Pediatric Family Housing Program. In the past year, approximately 225 pediatric patients and their families were accommodated for over 1000 nights in New York City through this endowment. The housing program allows children the comfort and support of being close to their family while receiving cancer treatment, which can require them to be in New York City for weeks, or even months, at a time.
